Technical Tour

 

On Thursday April 18th a technical tour will visit the Dr. Church Archives at the University Nevada Reno, and various labs at the Desert Research Institute (DRI).  We will see their Eco Cells which focus on climate controlled agriculture studies to grow crops under climate change scenarios. In addition to the Eco Cells and the ice core lab, we will see their Climate Engine which is on-demand cloud computing and visualization of climate and remote sensing data.

 

We hope to see you in Reno for a lively western snow, water and weather discussion. Check this website for the most current information, or contact westernsnowconference@gmail.com or the Chairs below for more information.
